WOLVES chief executive Jez Moxey has denied Kenny Miller is poised for an imminent move to Bank of Scotland Premier League giants Celtic.

The 26-year-old Miller, who joined Wanderers from Rangers for £3million in December 2001, is out of contract at the end of the season and has so far rejected offers to sign an extension.

A proposed £1.4million move to Sheffield United fell through because Miller quickly signalled he was less than keen on a move to Bramall Lane and now the Scottish international has been linked with a switch to Celtic Park. But Moxey said: "I think people are getting ahead of themselves a bit here.

"Just like any player who is out of contract at the end of the season, Kenny is entitled to speak to other clubs.

"But we've only had one bid for him, from Sheffield United, and we didn't accept that." o TEENAGE prodigy Theo Walcott has the potential to be the next Wayne Rooney - according to the Southampton striker's agent.

A host of leading Barclays Premiership clubs - including Arsenal and Chelsea - are believed to be in the queue to land the 16-year-old.

And Walcott's agent, Warwick Horton, has not been surprised by the interest shown in his client, who has been compared to peerless Arsenal striker Thierry Henry.

"He has the potential to be as successful as Wayne Rooney although he has been likened more to Thierry Henry because of his style and pace," he said.
